PROTECT LANDLINE PHONE SERVICE
Dear Decision Maker,

As your constituent, I am asking you to OPPOSE Assembly Bill 2797.

This bill unfairly circumvents a recent vote of the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC), which protected landline phone service for millions of Californians.

The CPUC vote was unanimous because Commissioners listened to thousands of comments that overwhelmingly supported keeping landline phone access. Such a service is essential to many older adults who live in rural areas. Landline phone service keeps those Californians connected to friends, family, and healthcare. Landlines are also far more reliable in emergencies such as wildfires and storms, since they are not affected by public safety power shutoffs or downed power lines.

For these reasons, I ask you to OPPOSE Assembly Bill 2797.

Thank you.
